Had to take one of my half finished dessert - warm rice pudding... yum

"After a string of releases on Melting Pot Music, Plane Jane and Yoruba Soul - vocalist, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Miles Bonny returns to the Bastard Jazz family for a special one off 7" paying homage to the Purple One, covering Prince's "Dear Mr. Man", a track that couldn't be more timely considering the state of the world, and Prince's untimely death one year ago to the date.

"Miister Man" goes for the jugular with a low slung drum break, a deep synth bassline, Miles signature understated funky vocal growls and horn injections. The instrumental is included on the flip." - Bastard Jazz

"Osunlade Is it bad to say this dunks harder than prince's original? Badass!??" - Osunlade

"Plane Jane is back with another proper 2-sider. This time by way of Miles Bonny, we heard Hello Jesus a few years back on an EP Miles had put out and Lepse has been playing it to dancefloors ever since. The tune gets such a heavy response we wanted to get it on a 7, so here it is.

Side A is Bonny’s version of a song that isn’t called Hello Jesus, with production by Canadian duo Circle Research. The bass and drums alone catch you from the first beat, add the gritty synth lines and Miles’ smooth but rough vocals and we have a hit. Sure to set the dance on fire for all the DJs that play this kind of thing.

Side B find Bonny’s version of a song that is not called High Enough, again with the strong production lead by punchy drums and a very recognizable bassline. Another Plane Jane classic sure to be getting heavy play across the world."

I went to Colorado to work on music and visit family. I made four beats and more friends. I love working on my MPC 2000 XL it's where I started and it's always fun. I hope you are well out there. I just drove by a dead elk. I can't believe standing rock to still an issue. call present Obama

Im doing some retrofit repairs to a natural building construction. In order to seal it up more efficiently I am connecting stucco mesh for future cement plaster application. To connect straw bail to stucco mesh use bailing wire. Cut lengths of about 12 inches and fold in half and the twist wire a little. You can experienent with this. Longer could be better but harder to get deep into the straw bail while shorter wire lengths do not pull mesh in as tight to the bail after being inserted. Push through mesh into straw bail. It's ok if it bends a little but the deeper into the straw bail that the wire goes, the tighter the hold at that point. Lightly hammer in end of folder wire after inserting each end by hand. Questions? Let me know.

Sharon jones died. I'm hanging out with my father at a Seun Kuti show live in the venue where I play twice a week in the midst of a trump impending presidency after working many hours for my community after missing my kids and my wife . The music and message from the band is amazing and the perspective is awesome. Standing next to the speaker for the first song made me cry. I'm grateful, scared, happy, and hopeful of the once.

Im sitting here in the middle of a weekday in Taos, New Mexico USA. It used to be Mexico just like Texas was. I am living in a weird time in this country. I've studied history. I know this is nothing new. Racists are once again in the whitehouse; this time without hiding behind their white hoods. But right now, I do what I can as an adult to not contribute to the legacy of dissapointing loses of previous generations which brings us here. I focus more on helpohg others than myself and in the process my needs are fulfilled as well. But I am alive, now. Now it's my turn to not simply accept what I'm surrounded by. But where do I start? For now I'll keep helping however I can. I'm open to your ideas and this moment I've just helped a younger person open another door. Next

Large companies who control mass media pop culture must be promoting people they feel will not become a commercial threat to their business. In other words, Jay-Z came up as a rapper and is now a wealthy business man who created competitive businesses as a result of his intellect, after using their platform to grow.

Perhaps the business people have learned their lesson and now promote people who may not rise to that level of dominance and wealth. Stockholders would be happy with that. So would CEOs
